Error- node cannot be selected in this context because it belongs to a different aggregation root

I am trying to select different nodes in Power BI and my source is SAP-BW. However, I am getting the below-mentioned error.
The node cannot be selected in this context because it belongs to a different aggregation root than the currently selected one.
I need to build reports using SAP-BW and I am getting this specific error. Any workaround for this?

Hello,

 

This error often occurs when selecting axes / measurements from different queries. Make sure nothing is checked outside of the query you are querying. On BW make sure to unfold the dimensions and check only the characteristics that interest you otherwise it will take them all and this will create an error.
